Weather Tile and Virtual Sensor Tiles Not Working
My weather tile and tiles that depend on virtual sensors just stopped workiing. Any suggestions?
Answer

SmartThings deprecated the SmartWeather device and there's no replacement at this time. The Weather Tile as we know it is probably gone forever. It will be replaced be a native implementation at some point in the future.
The original Virtual devices that were implemented in Groovy are either gone or broken across the board.
To create new Virtual devices under the new platform, please use the new IDE: https://my.smartthings.com/advanced

If anyone has a replacement implementation in the new IDE, I'd appreciate knowing how I can get it/set it up. THX!

Yeah same problem here... my SmartWeather finally died, and everything else seems to show just a forecast. I need current conditions!

That weather tile was the whole reason my wife let me put an ActionTiles display in the bedroom. Please see if you can come up with a replacement for the sake of my marriage. ;-)

I did find and try the MTG weather media for a tile and it works great but the temps are way off. It says Thursday for my zip code with be 109 degrees but weather.com says 100.

same here. Please let me know if anyone has come up with a simple solution for displaying current temperature!

Got the openweather free version working w/API key with Chris' example in this thread:
https://support.actiontiles.com/communities/12/topics/1000-how-do-i-add-the-smartweather-tile
Direct link to example: https://support.actiontiles.com/uploaded/file/19647/12/13542/9dacc0afb05e38d93bf0541458e3d09c.html
Just requires a little HTMLediting and waiting a bit for the API key to become active. Not quite as easy, but it's working for me!

this would totally work but I’m not familiar with how to set it up. Any advice? Thank you

Looks like you also have to host your own HTML and also I am no programmer. Eric please keep us updated on your progress. If you get more conditions figured out I might be willing to give it a try.

All you need is lat/long of your city and AppID = your API key from https://home.openweathermap.org/api_keys after creating an account. You update the 2 URI's in the HTML with those 3 details each, then edit the static HTML to your liking & voila! I think Chris put some placeholders in there <LikeThis> .
Mine was throwing 401 unauthorized for about 15-20 minutes before the API key would actually work.

forgive my lack of knowledge here. I have the api key but not familiar with where and how to update a uri. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

ok think I figured it out! Got the same error code 401 invalid app key so I assume api key not validated yet. Fingers crossed!

ok think I’m close. How do I create a static html? When I put the above https with my last long and app key, I get the below page.. next steps?

As Eric described above, what you need to do is:
- Go to the direct link that Eric posted above, view the source HTML code in your browser, and copy the code into a text file, using for example Notepad.
- Insert your APPID and Lat/Lon in the two lines of code indicated in the HTML code.
- Sign up and get a free account at FontAwesome https://fontawesome.com/sessions/sign-in and enter your Font Awesome ID in the one place indicated in the HTML code (near the top).
- Near the bottom of the code, replace 'Your Town' with the name of your town/city.
- Save the modified file as a '.HTML' file.
- Find a site online that will host your '.HTML' file for free. I use a service called DrivetoWeb (enter drv.tw in your browser to go there), but there are multiple options if you just search for 'free HTML hosting'.
- Once you have the URL for your hosted HTML code, create a shortcut in Action Tiles using that URL.
- Add an IFrame tile to your Action Tiles panel using the shortcut you just created, with a size 'width 2, height 1'.
- You now have a weather tile!!
- If you want to modify it, edit the HTML file as necessary and rehost it. For example, I changed Chris' code (last 9 lines) to match my tiles and style as shown here: My HTML Mods.txt
Hope this helps.

I forgot to mention that you need to add another line of code to Chris' HTML if you want the weather IFrame to automatically update. Originally I handled updates by having the entire panel update periodically via an Action Tiles setting. But, I now prefer to have only the weather tile update. To do that, insert this line at the top of the HTML code, immediately after the <head> line:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="x">
where x is the number of seconds between weather updates. I refresh every hour, so for me the inserted line looks like this:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3600">

created the above file and found a site to host my link: https://harlequin-haily-11.tiiny.site/
My output is just the source code. Clearly i am doing something wrong (not an expert in this stuff!). You're been great but any more guidance would be appreciated !

You need to remove the <> characters around your lat/lon and your weather and fontawesome ID entries. I did that and here's the text file and associated html file that now works:
YourWeather.txt
YourWeather.html
If you open (double-click) the html file on your computer it will display the weather tile in your browser. You'll need to reload the corrected html file into your hosting service.

Amazing, Worked incredibly well. Sorry I am no expert here but is there a way to make the font of the actual temperature bigger, like triple the size?
Thanks!

Near the bottom of this file YourWeather.txt you'll see four lines that contain text like this:
span style="font-size:Xem"
where 'X' is a number. Make 'X' bigger if you want the text on that line to be larger. and then save the file as a revised .html file.

Worked beautifully. Thank you! I found an HTML hosting site that does add a banner or add. Created how i wanted it to look but when i upload as an iframe or media. the tile is blank/ Any suggestions? here's the link: http://tonyweather.atwebpages.com/weather3.html
Thank you!

I beleieve the problem is your URL is http not https. Here's a discussion of the issue: https://support.actiontiles.com/communities/12/topics/13036-http-on-media-tile-no-longer-working-https-still-works

On to the next question! I see there is a call for AQI. Would love to create an AQI tile. How do i convert this call into a webpage? http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/air_pollution?lat={lat}&lon={lon}&appid={API key}
Thanks
